🗑️ Local River Clean-up
A big thank you to Thai Upon Thames and their staff, as this week they did a fantastic job pulling rubbish from the river Crane at Kneller Gardens, making it more enjoyable for the rest of the community. Have a look at some imagery of what they picked out.

It’s fantastic to see members of our community come together to do this, so as a way of saying thank you for their hard work, if you’re up for a takeaway instead of cooking (especially in this heat!) then give Thai Upon Thames a go!
🏃 Whose ready for the Olympics!
Spotted any crochet figures on your local post-boxes?
Well the members of St Stephen’s Church have been showing off their skills by creating these stunning works of art, always a delight to see. Take a look!

We can only wonder the skill it takes to make something like this, so a huge well done to the team behind it.
Thank you to local resident Ruth W for providing the story and images!
Car scammers - Beware!
Resident Kimberley was selling her car when a few ‘prospective buyers’ turned up to view the vehicle. Whilst her back was turned they poured oil in the engine to make it look like the car had problems.
This isn’t the first time, 2 other residents have reported the same people for pulling this scam, so please be aware if you are selling a car anytime soon.

Sick of signalling issues?
If you take the District Line or Overground from Richmond station, you will sure to be aware of the constant ‘signal failures’. Well now you can have your say.
